March 18th features a match where Montreal Impact will play host to Philadelphia Union in a clash of these two extremely mismatched Major League Soccer teams. Weather on match day is looking like a cloudy and cold day, with daytime temperatures of only 0 degrees, which will make playing unpleasant. In their last match, Montreal Impact recorded a 0-2 loss against Nashville SC. Jacob Shaffelburg struck first for Nashville SC in the 37th minute, then Washington added another in the 89th minute on a feed from Shaquell Kwame Moore In the end, Montreal Impact couldn’t muster any offence and Nashville SC ran away with the shutout win. They’re hoping to improve on their recent performance, having earned only 7 points in their last 10 matches, while in their last match, Philadelphia Union recorded a 1-0 shutout win against Chicago Fire. Joaquin Torres struck first for Philadelphia Union in the 90th minute, and that single goal was all that was necessary as neither team could manage any more scoring At the end of 90 a dissapointed Chicago Fire couldn’t manage to score, and Philadelphia Union took the shutout win. Philadelphia Union is looking for direction having earned 13 points in their last 10 matches.
These two teams have not yet played each other this season. Last season Philadelphia Union won the head to head battle with 1 win and 1 draw.
Philadelphia Union is lucky enough to have a few offensive weapons, with Julián Carranza and Daniel Gazdag each having 2 goals in their last five. N. Saliba and Romell Quioto are the top scorers for Montreal Impact in the last 5 matches, but unfortunately they only have one goal.
